convert trivial cases to ALLOC_ARRAY

Each of these cases can be converted to use ALLOC_ARRAY or
REALLOC_ARRAY, which has two advantages:

  1. It automatically checks the array-size multiplication
     for overflow.

  2. It always uses sizeof(*array) for the element-size,
     so that it can never go out of sync with the declared
     type of the array.
